I’m constantly impressed with the nurse practitioners and docs at After Hours Pediatrics.  My kids have seen Jeff McCollum FNP all their lives and I really appreciate his even, steady approach and willingness to let me make my own informed decisions about their care.  I’m a breastfeeding nut, 100% saavy, and he’s impressed me with his knowledge several times.  There’s a nurse practitioner in their practice there at After Hours who is also an IBCLC (certified lactation consultant) and my kids have seen her once or twice–she’s really great and I totally trust her, I just CAN’T for the life of me remember her name (mama brain strikes again!).  But she’s blonde and she’s an IBCLC.  I know it says that on her business card if you go to the office and just check them out.  Their number is 298-2505 and I’ve never had trouble getting a same-day appointment.  Unfortunately that’s about the only pediatric office I’m really familiar with–mostly that’s because I’d never consider changing!

 

Good luck with the jaundice–I hope it resolves soon!

 

Cheers,

Lauren

I am trying to find the names of a few breastfeeding savvy pediatricians in Albuquerque who can help in making a sound decision on treating breastmilk jaudice in a two and a half week old infant.

 Can anyone offer some names of docs with solid reputations?

Thanks,

Patti
